Manawahe Kokako Trust
Filling up a bait station
The Manawahe Kokako Trust protect kokako on private land in Manawahe, Rangitaiki area, through intensive pest control and monitoring. In 10 years the group has increased the population of kokako from nine to over 50. Other birds are also thriving.
You can help
Volunteers need to be fit, committed, and early risers. We cut tracks and lay poison over a 350 hectare area. There are six to seven working bees per breeding season.
Post working bee BBQ
Working bees are held on Saturday mornings from August to February starting at 7am finishing with a BBQ and debriefing at 12pm.
